Hiya gang,
I rebuilt the src.rpm of kaffeine and went to install it with 'rpm -ivh kaffeineblah.rpm' but keep getting this message back:
error: failed dependencies: libGLcore.so.1 is needed by kaffeine-0.3.1-1
I did a locate for libGLcore, and it's in /usr/lib, and is linked with libGLcore.so.1.0.4363. So I tried to do with libGLcore as I did with QT:
libGLcoreDIR=/usr/lib export libGLcore
But this doesn't seem to work or help (and I'm pretty sure it's wrong on my part anyway, it was just a shot in the dark). Is there something I'm missing or not doing correctly? I'd really like to try this kaffeiene thing out. Thanks for any hints/suggestions.

John, The libGLcore is an Nvidia bug. If the rpm is searching for it, it is because the user that made the .src.rpm had an Nvidia card in their machines, running the Nvidia binary drivers. For some reason, Nvidia wants to attach itself to the compile. Another good reason for not using Nvidia in my opinion, but that's another story and I digress.
You will have to have the full source to compile it on your machine, since apparently you are not using a Nvidia graphics card.

Hi Patrick, Yessir, I do have an nvidia card, and have the libGLcore.so.1.0.4363 (and the libGLcore.so.1, they're linked w/ each other). The .src.rpm came from PackMan's website ( http://packman.links2linux.de ), almost all of his .src.rpm's work well for me when I want to --rebuild my own. I have noticed this trouble with the nvidia libGLcore quite a while back, when I was trying to install gnomemeeting IIRR on this 8.2 machine. It's so strange that even linking the two doesn't seem to help any with certain apps (like this kaffeine). Thanks for any more assistance and/or ideas for this problem. John - -- I needed fresh bugs for my SuSE gecko, and Linux penguin. So I went out and caught this huge ugly blue and red and green and yellow butterfly. They won't need fresh food for 3 months now. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE++OgmH5oDXyLKXKQRAqabAJ9ZlenF5nld2PTL3tE62JgUnWdFQwCfREUL R9Id0p1aAE3xawQz9Nvx4UA= =zdHm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
